Foo Fighters: Miracle Meaning
Song Released: 2006
Miracle Lyrics
Begging for sweet relief
A blessing in disguise
I'm dying behind these tired eyes
I've been losing sleep
Please come to me tonight
Hands on a miracle
I got my hands on a miracle
Believe it or not
Hands on...

First off: the lyrics above aren't correct.
The correct lyrics (provided by Gracenote and posted on the MTV website) are as follows:
"Crazy but I'm relieved this time
Begging for sweet relief of blessing in disguise
Dying behind these tired eyes
I've been losing sleep, please come to me tonight
Hands on a miracle, I got my hands on a miracle
Leave it or not, hands on a miracle
And there ain't no way, let you take it away
Everything that we survived
Its gonna be alright, just lucky we're alive
Got no vision I've been blind
Searchin' everywhere, you're right here in my sights
Hands on a miracle, I got my hands on a miracle
Leave it or not, hands on a miracle
And there ain't no way, let you take it away
Hands on a miracle, I got my hands on a miracle
Leave it or not, hands on a miracle
I got my hands on a miracle
And there ain't no way, let you take it away
Take it away, take it away"
As for the meaning… I have seen no official explanation, but general discussion by fans has led to the belief that this is about the singer having a newborn child (the child being the miracle). His relationship with the mother is apparently passionate but tumultuous and the song is stating his resolve to stay with the child even if the relationship doesn't work, although the line "please come to me tonight" seems to me that he wants to keep the relationship as well.
I can't do a line by line analysis. Most of the lines still need further clarification by the writer and that doesn't seem to be coming.
